Granny Square Lapghan

This lapghan took me much longer than I remember the first time I made this pattern. I started on this in December 2010, and just finished it today. I made this for my mom, my intentions were to give it to her for Christmas, but it took too long to make. Although, I took a break from it to make this baby afghan. It really is a boring pattern, if more colors are used it might be a little more exciting to make. It turned out to be about three feet square.

Baby Afghan

What was going to be baby bibs turned out to be an afghan instead, I was unable to find the baby yarn I was looking for, so I used Red Heart Baby Clouds yarn. The yarn is very hard to crochet with. Although, the pattern was easy. I used this pattern made for this yarn from the Red Heart website. It took me two weeks to make this afghan, so it worked up rather quick.

 

Grandma's Diagonal Potholders

When my dad passed away I found a potholder in his home that I am sure my Grandma made. I have been wondering how to make one since I found it. I really like the pattern, and it looked easy to make. This past week I found the pattern on the internet. I can’t believe I found the exact pattern. Yesterday I made one, and finished it today and started on the second one. They are super easy! I used Red Heart – Monet print.

A great big thank you to this website for the pattern: Mielke’s Fiber Arts, LLC.
